    dont know how to put photos in properly so here it is as an attachment

    Ask John Hartson/Neil Lennon on twitter. Between them and other fans/players following, you'll surely get an answer

    I read both you and the builders comments and know your feelings on the guy, this pic is more a 'the fkn state of him' one rather than a dig at the rangers link.

    SPL say they've checked the EBT used by Celtic and say we've not broken any rules. They want anyone with any information about other SPL clubs misusing EBT's to get in touch...

    He's not the one who has been taken into custody.

    On top of that, what exactly is so wrong with his words ?

    If I recall it was something like 'Nazi, dress-wearing kiddy-fiddler protecting something something', about the Pope.

    Not in good taste, granted, but hardly sectarian.

    Not only that, but Scottish police raiding his house in England ?
    I remember when Joe O'Rourke said he though all Protestant shipworkers on the Titanic should have died too, nothing was made of that.

    Good to see public funds are being used for the good of the people, but **** if you're being robbed.

    The UK has gone mad on political correctness tbh, especially where twitter is concerned

    Agreed, I don't mind people getting in trouble when they spout crap (like racist stuff, death threats,...) on social media, but to raid someone's house for some comments, behave.

    Jelle he racially abused Edu the guy is a complete loser he has tagged onto our clubs coattails and to be honest we don't need idiots like him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭blahfckingblah


    ‘Star man is once again the bearer of bad tidings. Celtic are top of the league!!‘Now the football implications are obvious, but what does it mean for the altar boys? Do they get abused in celebration? Would it gave [sic] been worse in the anger of defeat? Or would they just get abused anyway?
    ‘What’s this got to do with football, nothing, but anyone who backs the Catholic Church that is fronted by a dress wearing, Nazi, kiddy fiddling protector deserves all the vitriol it gets. FTP!!’

    scummy enough like

    Scott Brown might be back on Saturday and available for the crucial Benfica match. I think Celtic will need to win on Wednesday, if we are to get up to 7 or 8 points in the group with a shot at 2nd place and the consolation of 3rd if 2nd is beyond reach. If we don't win on Wednesday the Group could end up being a bit of a struggle, with 3rd place being the very best we can hope for. Lenny wants Brown on Wednesday if at all possible I'd say.

    The club are trying to manage Brown's hip injury problems as opposed to tackle it head on. Reading between the lines on that article, there may have been complications from the hernia op he got last season. Hopefully Brown's injury worries can be sorted out.

    “There’s nothing worse than getting the ‘hairdryer’ from Sir Alex,” said Rooney.

    “When it happens, the manager stands in the middle of the room and loses it at me. He gets right up in my face and shouts.

    “It feels like I’ve put my head in front of a BaByliss Turbo Power 2200. It’s horrible.

    “I don’t like getting shouted at by anyone. It’s hard for me to take, so sometimes I shout back.

    "I tell him he’s wrong and I’m right.”

    ----

    Rooney also revealed how some players have been ruined by a blast from Ferguson, their confidence shattered by the verbal assault, many of whom never recover from the experience.

    “It spurs some of the lads on, but it crushes others,” said Rooney.

    “I’ve seen the manager shout and scream at people and when they’ve gone back on the pitch their heads have dropped. They’ve lost it.”

    Rooney recalled how one of Ferguson’s most explosive ‘hairdryer’ moments came after United lost 1-0 at Celtic in a Champions League group game in 2006.

    Former United striker Louis Saha had missed a last-minute penalty to snatch a draw, Ferguson’s men eventually going down 1-0 to Gordon Strachan’s side.

    Ferguson and Strachan endured a stormy relationship, dating back to their time as manager and player at Aberdeen.

    The United boss was furious his players had lost to Strachan’s side and gave Saha both barrels in the dressing-room afterwards, revealed Rooney.

    “It’s the worst ‘hairdryer’ I’ve seen,” said Rooney. “He’s in Louis’ face, shouting and screaming.

    “But Louis isn’t the only one getting an earful.

    "The manager knows I’ve been negotiating a new deal with the club and he saves some for me, 'Players wanting more money from the club and new deals - you don’t deserve anything after that performance!’”

    Despite the blast, Rooney acknowledged that his performance at Celtic did not merit the new, improved contract he would eventually sign later that season.

    Ferguson's greatest asset as a manager, the hairdryer treatment! I'd say it be some experience!

    We all knew it probably happened but knowing that Ferguson gave a few players the hairdryer treatment after the 1-0 win at Parkhead makes me smile from ear to ear! I'd say Strachan has opened a bottle of champagne at the thoughts:pac:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭the realpigiron


    I remember when Naka cracked that free kick and Parkhead went wild, Strachan came running down the steps to celebrate but then suddenly stopped in his tracks when you could see him think - jeez there's still 9 minutes left here.

    Celtic didn't play in a traditional hi tempo way that night, they let United have the ball with the intention of hitting them with a Naka sucker punch. The plan worked to perfection, even though Boruc still had to save a pen when United woke up.

    Fair play to Strachan, he really got one over the ould bastwerd that night.

    Was that photo not doctored to make it look like it was aimed at Edu even though he was nowhere near?

    Don't even know, if it was during a match against Rangers. Might have been Hearts as well

    It does sound like it will be a case of managing Brown's ability to play for the season really. At least the latest news sounds better then before. We really need Brown but it needs to be a Brown who can play at least at something close to his top level. I still feel he was playing very gingerly in those Helsingborg games due to the hip injury.
